Holiday: pre-holiday June 18-25

The first part of our "summer vacation" was spent at a Hotel/Resort about an hour away from the Ship called the "Dunas."  Nick spent some nights with us and some nights on the ship doing schoolwork (and moving our cabin!).   We played and swam and ate icecream and enjoyed endless french fries...the pictures can tell the story....

The Drive

About an hour along the coast

Our good-looking driver

Some things are too amazing not to take a picture of....like this view (and our driver)

The Pool

 The Playground (on site)

 Pictures in the Driveway Mirrors

The Mascot/Kids' Special Snack

Duni the Dolphin!

 Fun Perks

ICECREAM!! Available most all day everyday.  (may or may not have been used as a bargaining tool at bedtime)(bribery or reward system?  you tell me.)

Elizabeth and the bird that I wasn't supposed to take pictures of

Emma's Kinder Club Creation

Eli's daily dose of burgers and fries

 Another Playground (down the hill)

Eli and Joy looking at the turtles and ducks and fish

baby ducks!!

 Luxury upon luxury

Wish it worked to put this on the door in "normal" life

The view from our "cabin" (room)

Meanwhile, back on the ship

Ship out of water

The "Gangway" 

View from Deck 8 Down

Henry the Vacuum...but this picture isn't just of the vacuum...it's a representation of the HOURS of work Nick put into moving our stuff into our new cabin and cleaning our old cabin while he was on the ship and we were at the hotel (he came some nights and stayed some nights).  This wife is beyond grateful for his hard work and effort! 

And that concludes the first of many looks into the Cash Family Summer 2014 Photo Album...

Surely there will be more to come.
